About the Author

Boria Majumdar is one of Indias leading sports scholars and commentators. The kitchen was alien to him until hostel life in Oxford finally forced him to cook. Having had several interesting experiences with exotic food (like being served scorpions and turtles for breakfast in China), this book is about his encounters with food and his escapades in the kitchen, which he hopes will inspire many like him to cook in order to eat good and healthy food, and in doing so, appreciate home food that much more.
